Dear all, I’m writing now to share the NULab’s fall 2019 calendar of events, included below and summarized in the attached flyer. We have some very exciting talks, workshops, and panels planned for the fall, organized around our year-long theme: “technologies of democracy.” You can find additional details and registration information for these events at: www.northeastern.edu/nulab/events. We’ll share any updates or newly-added events on the NULab events page; we’ll also circulate these through the NUDIGITAL list. If you’re not already on this list, we encourage you to subscribe: it’s a shared announcement and discussion list that brings together all areas of digital scholarship, digital humanities, computational social science, media studies, and other related fields at Northeastern University. To subscribe to the list, just visit: https://listserv.neu.edu/cgi-bin/wa?A0=NUdigital and click “subscribe” on the right-hand side of the page. These events are free and open to the public, but some require registration. Guests from outside the Northeastern community who wish to attend NULab-hosted events should RSVP to Sarah Connell at [log in to unmask] Please share this message with anyone you know who might be interested and contact me with any questions. We hope to see you this fall!
